Collection of Data during the booking process

When you book a hotel with the Bargain Breaks, we ask you for personal
information. We use this information to process your booking and to
communicate with you about your reservation. We also use your email address
to send you confirmation of all the details of your booking and the hotel's
contact details. Occasionally, we send our customers special offers and
promotional information via email newsletter and postal mail, using the
details you provided. Before sending you any such information we would
always ask for your consent to do so.

Collection and Use of Information

When you book a hotel with Bargain Breaks we ask you for your full name,
mailing address, email address, contact telephone number and credit card
details. During the course of the booking process your credit card details
are deleted and we do not store credit cards details in any format. In
order to process your booking your personal details are used to confirm
your booking with the hotel and after a short period of time these are also
deleted from our system. This is in line with best practice in the Credit
Card industry and conforms with the global standards of PCI Compliance
(Payment Card Industry compliance standards).

Cookies

This website uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by
Google, Inc. ('Google'). As you browse the Bargain Breaks website, cookies
are placed by Google Analytics on your computer's hard drive. (Cookies are
small pieces of data that are sent to your browser from a web server and
stored on your hard drive.) These cookies allow us to identify you whilst
you are on the Bargain Breaks website and help us analyse how you use the
site. We can then compile reports on site activity for site operators and
provide other services relating to site activity and internet usage. If
your browser is set to not accept cookies, you will not be able to use the
Bargain Breaks site or service.

Disclosure

Except as described in this section, we will not sell, rent or disclose
your personal information to third parties without notifying you of our
intent to share the information and giving you an opportunity to prevent
your information from being shared. Your details are forwarded to your
hotel to secure your reservation and allow the hotel to contact you if
necessary. Occasionally, we use other companies, agents or contractors to
perform services necessary to our operations. For example, we have
partnered with other companies to personalise our web pages, process credit
card transactions or analyse customers' interaction with our site. In the
course of providing such services, these companies may have contact with
your personal information. By contractual agreement, these companies must
treat your information in accordance with Data Protection legislation. Any
exceptions to this policy of sharing your personal information with a
partner company will be made only with your permission. Bargain Breaks also
reserves the right to disclose information when required by law. You should
check back for updates to this policy. Bargain Breaks will obtain email
consent from any user if the company intends to use the information
collected in a manner different from that stated when the user registered.

Security and Access

When you reach the booking page on our website you will notice two
significant changes to your browser. Firstly, in your address bar the usual
http situated before the URL is replaced by https. This is informing you
that you have reached a secure area of the site and your sensitive
information is safe. Additionally, you will also observe a closed padlock
on the bottom right of the screen. This is just another assurance of your
security. We also use the very latest technology to protect your credit
card information. All transactions are protected by Secure Sockets Layer
(SSL), a secure server which is regarded as the best software available
today for secure e-commerce transactions. SSL powerfully encrypts all of
your personal numbers and information before it is sent across the Internet
to our servers. A firewall which protects our servers and network against
unauthorised access is used in addition.

We take appropriate technical and organisational precautions to secure your
personal data and to prevent the loss, misuse or alteration of your
personal data. We store all your personal data on secure servers, personal
computers and mobile devices, and in secure manual record-keeping systems.
Data relating to your enquiries and financial transactions that is sent
from your web browser to our web server, or from our web server to your web
browser is protected using encryption technology.

Transfers of your personal data

The hosting facilities for our websites are situated in Europe. Our Email
Service Providers (SendinBlue) servers are situated in United States of
America. Our analytics providers (Google) are situated in the United States
of America. The European Union has made an "adequacy decision" with respect
to the data protection laws of each of these countries. Transfers to each
of these countries is protected by appropriate safeguards, namely the use
of standard data protection clauses adopted or approved by the European
Union.
